Senate President Godswill Akpabio has said employers are now mandated to pay their staff a minimum wage of N70,000.

He emphasised that even small-scale employers, including those in informal sectors like domestic work and tailoring must adhere to the minimum wage when hiring additional help.  

Akpabio said this while passing the new minimum wage bill into law on the floor of the senate. 

He said: “If you’re a tailor and you employ additional hands, you can’t pay the person below N70,000. If you have a housemaid, you cannot pay them below N70,000. If you hire a driver or a gateman, you cannot pay them below N70,000.”
